Jay Bhanushali is out of work these days. He is not only out of the reality show Bollywood ka Ticket, he has also quit the daily soap Kayamath. So what made him leave the latter since this was the show that shot him to popularity? He says, "There was nothing left for me to do. I was only shooting once in a while and that too simply giving reactions to the scenes being done. So I had a word with Ekta and we mutually decided that I quit the show."
But news has it that he was unhappy with being sidelined by Shabbir Ahluwalia.
"Honestly, I did hope that we would get equal footing which was not happening. So when the generation leap happened, I decided that I was better off without Kayamath," replies Jay.
Not stopping at that, he has now gone ahead and refused Ekta's magnum opus Hamara Mahabharat. Adding that he was not apprehensive at all about offending Ekta, he says, "She's quite cool. If you give a suitable reason about your reluctance then she is very reasonable. I was offered the part of Sahadev but I wasn't comfortable about doing a mythology. I really feel that you need to be a great actor to play such characters. I wasn't comfortable using the mythology language or wearing those costumes. I saw no point in going ahead with something I wouldn't be able to do justice to. I explained this to her and she saw my point."
